Therapists for college students near 10003

Do you find yourself feeling stuck or with the sense that you are just going through the motions and simply existing? I can help guide you to participate more fully in life and reach your maximum potential. We will work collaboratively to increase self-awareness, identify recurring patterns, and minimize maladaptive behaviors through the use of coping skills and resources at hand. With insight, confidence and tools in hand, you will be better equipped to effectively navigate through various road bumps in life and stop getting in your own way. I'm very collaborative, directive and strengths-based in my work with clients. I work with adults, couples and families to address life challenges related to mood & personality disorders, addiction & dependency-based issues, building positive relationships and cultivating self-worth. I have an eclectic approach, utilizing several different modalities to suit each client's needs, including evidence-based practices where applicable. It is common for ambivalence to be involved when facing any kind of life decision or transition. A CBT, DBT and motivational interviewing approach can allow me to meet a client where they are at and help each individual gage their own level of readiness for change. You've taken a huge step just by seeking out therapy. Now let's go on this journey together!

Life’s challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face them alone. As a Filipino-American immigrant and career switcher (former medical student and tech sales professional), I understand the complexities of navigating major life transitions—whether adjusting to a new culture, finding your place in a demanding career, or balancing personal and professional expectations. I specialize in supporting high-achieving young professionals, first-generation Asian-Americans, healthcare workers, medical spouses, immigrants, and international students facing anxiety, burnout, imposter syndrome, self-worth, identity, and relationship challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally responsive. Together, we’ll explore how past experiences shape your present, helping you break free from patterns that no longer serve you. Fluent in English and Tagalog, I offer a space where you can unpack your experiences, build self-trust, and move forward with clarity. If you're ready to reclaim your voice, self-worth, and direction, I invite you to take the next step. Therapy is a space where you can explore your experiences without judgment and gain tools for lasting change. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone—I’m here to support you.

I believe that every person has the innate capacity for change and growth, and my mission is to help you overcome obstacles, improve relationships, and lead a gratifying and joyful life. I draw from a wide range of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), to assist individuals in coping with emotional distress. My toolkit also includes mindfulness practices, meditation, hypnotherapy, art therapy, and trauma-focused approaches, allowing me to tailor treatment to your unique needs.

Queensborough Mental Health Counseling specializes in providing comprehensive mental health services in Queens and the greater New York community. Our team of licensed therapists offer individual, couples, and group therapy to support clients in managing and overcoming a variety of mental health concerns. We are committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for our clients to work towards their personal growth and well-being. QMHC stands out from other practices through its emphasis on a psychodynamic approach to therapy. Psychodynamic therapy combines many therapeutic theories and orientations like Psychoanalysis, Adlerian therapy, Person Centered therapy, Logotherapy, Narrative therapy, Trauma informed therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). The non-adherence to any one specific orientation allows for more specialized and individually tailored treatment. This style of therapy involves guiding clients in the process of introspection and self-understanding. Facilitating personal discovery helps individuals better understand how their past experiences impact their current functioning and impower them to take more control over their life narrative. The combination of focused introspection and meaning making with practical skill development and coping tools helps individuals maintain therapeutic progress. We structure treatment in this way because we believe that knowing one's self and having the resources to confront the changes one wants to make is the key to therapeutic success.

Hello, my name is Sarah. Do you know that feeling of being sad or down most of the time? Or feeling so anxious and you’re not even sure why? I know I do, I think most of us have from time to time. I’m here to work collaboratively with you to start making the changes in your thoughts and behaviors that will allow you to feel relief and be present for yourself. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Masters degree in Social Work from the University of Pennsylvania. I’ve had the privilege of working with adults of all ages who are struggling to find balance and stability within themselves and their relationships. My treatment modality includes drawing from mindfulness-based techniques as well as advanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approaches. We will work to expose and challenge your unhealthy or negative thoughts in order to get you feeling better, fast! Through incorporating psychotherapy homework into your week, you will learn how to improve your mood without my help. My specialties include Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, various types of Anxiety, Sadness/ Depression, Communication problems, and Relationship concerns. I am also passionate working with individuals a part of the LGBTQ+ community who have experienced discrimination, rejection, and labeling. I deeply care about providing an inclusive space for you to receive help and support. I believe our emotions show awesome and wonderful qualities about ourselves that I hope to uncover with you. I look forward to meeting you and getting started.

I believe that each of our stories are equally sacred as they are unique and see therapy as an opportunity to cultivate curiosity for ourselves, let go of self-judgement, and create meaningful change. I utilize an embodied approach rooted in Gestalt Therapy and don't shy away from bringing humor, play and creativity to the therapeutic process. Though my experience ranges across many areas, I gravitate towards helping clients work through Inner Child Healing, codependency, perfectionism, relational trauma, multicultural identity and relationship issues. I also work with couples seeking to deepen intimacy, trust and communication.

My approach is both relational and practical. I focus on helping you understand the patterns that keep you stuck—especially overthinking, self-doubt, and relationship anxiety—while also giving you tools to respond differently in real time. I draw from a blend of approaches, including insight-oriented work and more structured strategies, depending on what’s most helpful for you. I’m active and engaged in sessions, not just listening but helping you make connections and move forward. The goal is not just insight, but actual change in how you think, feel, and show up.

Please note that my practice is currently virtual (telehealth, phone and video) with an anticipated return to an office in January 2022 for resumption of face-to-face sessions.

Are past childhood wounds affecting your relationships today? If you struggle to form or maintain emotional connections, or find yourself repeating unhealthy patterns, your inner child may still be carrying the weight of past trauma. I specialize in helping people understand how early experiences shape adult behavior, attachment styles, and difficulties in relationships. Together, we’ll uncover and heal the wounds from your past, giving a voice to the parts of you that were once silenced. It’s time to reconnect with your inner child, nurture their needs, and break free from the cycles that hold you back. My therapy style is rooted in psychodynamic principles. This means I’ll explore if you feel as though, messages you received as a child, are still causing problems in current relationships. We’ll then work together to heal these wounds while learning how to better cope with our inner child, and shake hands with them, with a touch of humor along the way. I understand that starting therapy can feel daunting, but I'm here to support you every step of the way. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed or uncertain, I'll provide guidance, validation, and comfort as you embark on your journey of healing and empowerment. Please feel free to reach out, and I guarantee a response within 24 hours.

We are a team of psychotherapists who blend traditional talk therapy with creative arts therapies and mind-body healing arts to help you feel better, cope better, heal, grow and thrive. Whether you choose to work with us in Talk Therapy, Art Therapy, Dance-Movement Therapy, Yoga Therapy, or a combination, our aim is to provide a refuge for you to express, explore and discover your deepest truths, gain clarity and build resilience, find balance and direction, and to live more authentically, with more courage and connection, presence, purpose and passion. Our primary goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and met. An inclusive, anti-racist, culturally humble, LGBTQ+ allied, welcoming-to-all environment is step one.

We live in a high-paced world, pulling us in all directions, leading us to feel burnt out and disconnected from other people. You might have become tired of the nagging stress, the strong emotions, the complexity of navigating relationships, or the feeling that something is holding you back from reaching your full potential. Despite all of this, a part of you wants to feel better and move forward. After all, that is why you are taking this major step of seeking help at this moment in your life. In my practice, I construct a safe therapeutic space where you can slow down and breathe. I believe there is no one-size-fits-all formula to address your unique history, personality, and concerns. Therefore, I take a holistic and integrative approach. I consider your difficulties, strengths, where you came from, where you are now, and where you want to be. By working together with clients, I help them cultivate emotional intelligence, deepen honest self-reflection, and increase their motivation to change. Most of my clients aim to reduce stress, improve human connection, and live more meaningful lives. If you are ready to start your journey towards wellness, email me to set up a free no-obligation brief consultation.

Experience Psychotherapy is a psychotherapy practice grounded in the understanding that working with experience in the present moment is a profoundly powerful building block for promoting personal growth and health. I work with people collaboratively to develop the skills to navigate life and relationships with more confidence and flexibility. College is often a time in life of great growth and transition. This can be exciting, but also stressful and disorienting. Therapy can be a place to organize ourselves in the midst of these stressful periods. Michael can work with plans that have out of network coverage.

We all get overwhelmed. New challenges can emerge, coping skills cease working, and new skills need developing. Therapy can help light the way. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, panic, depression, ADHD or everyday life becoming unmanageable, therapy can provide you with the tools to cope. I want to be there to support you during this process. Successful therapy starts with the formation of the counselor-client bond. Therapy is a relationship where a private, supportive, and non-judgmental alliance is fostered. Psychic injuries, biological dispositions, familial experiences, and successful life experiences shape our present. The past affects how we relate to others and why we carry wounds into the present. New and old life events can lead to self-destructive coping. Therapy can heal wounds and impart insight. Symptoms and diagnosis need not define us. We can learn to appreciate life’s joy and successes. Call for a no-fee phone consultation and start the journey. I practice an integrative approach to counseling informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Attachment theory. I specialize in the treatment of depression, bipolar, ADHD, and anxiety disorders. Other areas of concentration include improving self esteem, increasing assertiveness, improving interpersonal relationships, and managing life transitions. Our counseling experience starts with a no fee phone screening to see if we are a good fit. You and I will ask a couple questions to get an idea of what you are going through. If I have the right tools and you feel comfortable, we will proceed to the paperwork and setting up our first Telehealth session.

Hi ! I am Samah, a South Asian therapist originally from India. I specialize in working with students, including international students, people of color, and immigrants who are navigating not just academics, but identity, belonging, and the pressure to succeed. As an immigrant myself, I understand how cultural expectations can affect us and manifest as beliefs, patterns, and behaviors that may not serve us; therefore, we will navigate these concerns together in a way that allows you to uphold your cultural values while building a strong sense of self. I understand what it’s like to begin this journey away from family, balancing the guilt of leaving loved ones behind while trying to build a new life. It can feel like you’re living between two worlds: holding onto your cultural identity while also trying to adapt, grow, and find your place in a new environment. This experience can bring up feelings of isolation, anxiety, and self-doubt, even when things seem to be going well on the outside. In our work together, I aim to create a space where you feel seen, understood, and supported as your full self. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, academic pressure, or questions around identity and family, we can explore these challenges at your pace and help you feel more grounded and confident in who you are becoming.

You may be in a place in your life where you have noticed patterns of behavior that you would benefit from changing in some way. You may have contemplated these areas and feel like you have an understanding of when these issues arise and what has caused them, but are unsure of what you can do to address them. Perhaps you’ve found it difficult to communicate your wants and needs in certain situations. Or maybe you’ve realized that your methods of coping are neither the healthiest nor most helpful for dealing with distress. You may have even noticed that your relationships have fit into a pattern that you are now dissatisfied with. I am here to help you finally transition from reflection action. Working with me, you will work on figuring out the tangible steps you can take to improve what you would like to improve in your life. I will help you refine a skillset that will help you ensure that you are meeting your own needs while also nurturing those positive relationships in your life. As a queer, non-binary clinician, I also recognize the unique ways those of us in the LGBTQ+ community may identify and live our lives, and as such will help to ensure that the skills you build affirm your lifestyle. If this sounds of interest to you, please do not hesitate to book a free fifteen minute consultation with me today so you can begin growing.
